If school allow all students to return on the 25th of May, how are other schools approaching this in terms of 'resetting the students'. Does anyone have resources/info/website they can point me towards, to best get our kids back into the swing of daily school life, post pandemic?

One goal I had this year was to implement 'PPC's' - Positive Parent Calls. I spent an hour doing this, after school today & it was fantastic for my soul. So many parents genuinely chuffed that their kid was recognised for just being generally awesome and appreciated by teachers!

Happiness on the first day back for Term 4 is realising that the classroom fish stayed alive over the break 🤣

HELP! Can anyone send me a pdf copy of a student report card? We are in the process of rethinking our reporting process because it is so stressful and tedious. Just wondering if someone has a reporting format that they love and are willing to share.
Keen to hear from @AndrewFuller1, keeping things real for us this afternoon at the #OZCAS19 conference.

2nd PD that I've sat through with @hstono. Great presenter, makes a crowded curriculum clear, relevant and workable. Feeling inspired rather than overwhelmed with the curriculum now. Thank you. #OZCAS19

Looks like we need to find lots of answers for our literacy problems. Pre-emptive and post primary solutions. #OZCAS19

26% of students use their ATAR to enter university. Why oh why, is this the number one focus of Senior Schooling. 21st Century Skills are the ONLY 100% transferable skill. @adolesuccess #OZCAS19
